Lol he is a fatty! We try not to feed him too much but somehow there is always food on his plate. He’s a Maine Coon runt, but he’s the best most friendliest animal I’ve ever had. Follows me everywhere when I’m outside and since he was little (he’s 13) he’s tried to sleep on either my wife’s or my head at night haha

He's awesome! I love cats. I've got a couple right now actually, I've had a cat or a few all my life. One of ours also tries to squeeze us off our pillows or wrap around our heads

Haha yes! It’s just happily chugging along. One really nice thing about it is, it will eat anything you throw in the magazine. My bags of stove size have lots of fines, pea, & nut from being moved so much. Nothing gets wasted. And while loading with the MPD open, the four “vent” holes in the top of the mag seem to suck the fine dust in as well so there is very little black dust on reload.

very good on the mag vents providing that negative pressure at loading. I've gone to screening my coal before I bring it to the house cause i'm tired of the dust.

I too have been considering screening just to cut down on the dust since shoveling from the hod is a bit dusty. Once I figure out when the best time to shake is so it doesn’t get all over the glass I’ll be good. Until then, I wipe with news paper at every load.
I may screen some of it for next winter. I wonder if it can be wet down to rinse it clean and left to dry for next year?
